Question

Asset Warp Tool Pixilating my vector asset.

Hello All,

 

So I have been trying to get excited about this Asset Warp Tool but it keeps pixilating the assets I apply it to. At first I thought it was becuase my Document size was to small so I boosted the size up tremedously and that did actually make it...less blurry but still there was loss, less loss but. 

 

I thought it would be fine once I crunch it down and render out like say a GIF at a much smaller size.  Well ...I did just that just now and the quality of the warped objects is much more pixilated then any object without and really just ..bad.  As of know Im feeling like this is not a usable tool and am thinking I should have done this project in Affter Effects and try out there warp tool.  Or even raster everything and use Unity as a free spine rig tool:/ Any help would be greatly appreciated!  Thank you in advance:)

 

Attaching a screenshot of a part of the GIF output and what it looks like in the working file.  Looks fine in the in the Animate File.  Is if my Gif output settings?  Please help haha

    For some reason, the option to turn off bitmap conversion when using the Asset Warp tool is buried deep in the Preferences panel. Open Prefs, go down to Drawing and you'll see a checkbox to turn this off.

    I can confirm this is the case unfortunately, Animate lowers the quality of the bitmap when using the asset warp tool. I'm not sure about the GIF issue, you might want to try reducing the stage size to the desired size of the GIF instead of scaling it down from the GIF window. That or export to video first and convert it to GIF using Photoshop or Media Encoder.
